Let me show you the menu~ Maybe because it is a traditional Seoul market, prices were incredibly, incredibly low. What especially stood out was being able to enjoy a whole old-fashioned chicken at a low price~ Considering what a whole chicken costs these days, I thought it was clearly a great-value chicken spot near Guui Station.

This time, I ordered half fried dakgangjeong and half medium-spicy dakgangjeong. Having two different flavors together instead of just one made it fun to choose between them.

Warm, crisp fried chicken

The fried chicken came out right after frying, so I loved its warm, crisp texture. The coating was not overly thick or greasy, so it was cleaner to eat than I expected. I could really taste that nutty flavor unique to freshly fried chicken too, making this a menu item I would recommend to anyone looking for chicken near Guui Station.

Medium-spicy flavor to pair with it

The medium-spicy dakgangjeong had a sweet sauce with a pleasant level of heat. It was not just intensely spicy, so it was easy to eat, and alternating it with the fried chicken cut through any richness and made the meal even tastier!

What I liked most was that they fried everything on the spot after I ordered. Both the dakgangjeong and chicken were warm and crisp, without much of that greasy feeling of food that seems to have been in the oil too long.
